We have just returned from a wonderfully peaceful and relaxing break at East Farm Cottage.We came here while we were having a new kitchen installed at home and could not have chosen a better place. The cottage is extremely well equipped and very comfortable and the views are spectacular. We were surrounded by fields and the feeling of peace and tranquility was amazing. The skies were so dark at night that you can see the stars so clearly.This was our westie puppy,s first holiday and he loved it, especially the little white calf in the field.The owners are very friendly and we appreciated the tea and scones on arrival along with the gift of free range eggs from their hens. Nick was even so kind as to forward me a photograph of the little white calf that Stuart loved after we had returned home. We have already recommended this cottage to our friends and family.

“Peaceful location. Home from home cottage. Great walks from doorstep.”

Reviewed 3 September 2015
for a stay in June 2015

Fantastic welcome from the owners and nothing too much trouble. Peaceful location with wonderful walks from the doorstep. Spotlessly clean throughout and every utensil you could want in the kitchen! Middleton Village is literally just down the road and has some nice places to eat and drink and a well stocked supermarket. Was a really good central location to explore the Yorkshire Dales and The Lakes by car but the immediate area was by far equally as good and not swamped by tourists! Our dogs absolutely loved their stay as well!

We have just returned from a very enjoyable week in this cottage. The owners have obviously worked hard to provide absolutely everything you could possibly need for a stay away from home with great views from the windows to add to the experience! When you arrive, the cottage is beautifully clean and there are fresh flowers on the table plus some edible goodies which make you feel very welcome.The owners live next door but do not intrude However, if you bump into them outside they are very warm and friendly and happy to chat or give you ideas about places to visit. They are obviously very enthusiastic about their area.The other plus here is how welcome our two dogs were. If you want a dog-friendly cottage in a beautiful area of the country then this one is perfect.

The cottage was beautiful with everything that could ever be needed (and more).we had the bed made as a super king size and it was enormous and made up with crisp white bedding.plenty of storage.shower was powerful with bath sheet towels.the cottage is set in what feels to be the middle of nowhere but is in fact only 10-15mins walk from the village. Middleton has a variety of cafes and a couple of dog friendly pubs.location and cottage second to none.nick and Elizabeth were lovely and miissy's bark was definitely worse than her bite!we would go back next week if we could but will have to settle for dreams for next year

Many thanks for the review. I'm glad that you enjoyed your break and were able to get away from everyday stresses and relax. I hope that the return to work has not been too bad and that we shall see all three of you again soon.

What can I say? I fell in love with the cottage on its website and fell in love for the second time when I actually saw it. Nick and Elizabeth (and Missy!) were fantastic; we had all sorts of goodies when we arrived which were so welcome after a long journey. The cottage is very well equipped, clean, warm and cosy and we felt at home straight away. The views are absolutely stunning and we had a "garden" full of sheep and rabbits which made you relax even if you weren't planning on it! We loved the fact we were close to Middleton but still felt remote. Middleton itself was friendly and had all the shops we needed (apart from a bakers, but other shops catered for this), and cafes and pubs.

Really sorry when our week was up and wouldn't hesitate to stay again if we had the chance. Thank you for making us so welcome.
